Parted forever our two lives must be
Your haunting eyes never more must see!"

Your lips were resting my upturned face,
My face that was young and fair,
And all the flooding moonlight on my hair.
Now, after years of grief, and pain, and doubt,
I kneel once more beside the window and look out,
And in vision of my memory
I see your figure it hurries by.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Such Will Be the Ultimate Effect of
Secretary Bayard's Recent Action.
What Government Agent at the Seal ISL
ands Says About His Protection of Brit
ish Marauders of the Behring Sea.

Mr.. Thomas F. Ryan, government agent for
the Seal islands, off Alaska, who is here on va
cation, was asked by Journal reporter what he
thought of the action of Secretary Bayard in re-
leasing the English vessels captured and con-
demued for killing seals in the waters of Behring
sea. near the Seal islands
"Well," said Mr.. Ryan, 'if Secretary Bayard
is correct in his position that vessels may take
seals over three miles out from the shore of an
island a reservation situated within an ir,.,,r,
sea, wouldn't promise much revenue from that
now profitable spot ten years from now"
why so9' was the inquiry.
because this action, on the part of our gov
eminent, will be taken as general invitation to
seal hunters to go and help themselves. This
they will most surely do, and it will result in the
determination Of the seal in those waters within
ten, or, at furthest, twenty years. The number
of seals taken from the Seal islands, or within
three miles of the shore, by sealhunters, is
small. almost insignificant. in comparison with
the great number taken in the waters between
the Aleutian chain of islands and the Seal
islands. mostly in water fifty or sixty miles
directly south of the Seal island of st. George.
Seal hunters, who understand the business. sell
dom. never, bother the islands. There are
places, fish banks, in different parts of the
Behring sea where the seals 90 daily to feed,
and here the experienced al-hunter makes
his principal catch. These hunters-called
pirates by the natives-are far more destructive
of the seals in what they do take than the com
pany, that by law takes one hundred thousand
per year. for while the company protect the
cows the female seals, the pirates kill them,
and in so doing not only destroy the producer.
but also the pup, by leaving it at tender age
to shift for itself. About 1,600,O00 male seals
have been taken by the company in the last
seventeen years. and yet the increase in females
is small, showing, as think that the cows have
been the principal game for the pirates. If
this is Mr. Bayards decision, good bye to
the seal islands and their profitable interests
If the government cannot extend it's strong arm
to protect its property. the SEAL beyond three
miles from the shore, then that beautiful and in
teresting animal will be like the Buffalo in a
few years-a thing of the past. l am sorry for
this turn in the affairs Of the Seal islands, While
that far-off part of our country is not the most
inviting yet there are great and profitable in
terests there. 1t is shame that we cannot pro-
tect them from the common marauders of the
sea, especially those sailing under the British
flag"

Rapid Rise of an Indiana Actress.

The success Of Miss Alice Fischer, the young
actress from Terre Haute, who is now the lead
ing lady in Frank Mayo's company, has been
phenomenal. When she announced her deter
mination to 60 on the stage her parents strongly
objected and many of her friends advised her
against such course During her eirlhood she
frequently appeared III amateur theatrical per-
formances. and, as reader gave evidence of
extraordinary talent. For a year more she
was teacher in the public schools at Terre
Haute. She is remarkably beautiful woman,
talland graceful with figure Of ideal proportions.
When, In 1884, she determined to 60 to the
Lyceum School Of Acting New York, her
friends arranged benefit performance from
which she received about 500. She saw Frank
Mayo's "Nordeck," aud was anxious to take the
part of the Princess She called on Nr. Mayo.
There was opening for her, but she was prom
ised trial The occasion came. She surprised
Mr.. Mayo and the company and was given
place in the company Jan. &c. 1886. Since then
her success has been Of the most remarka
BILE instances of rapid advancement known to the
stage, and. as result, she has received many
offers from managers to take parts usually given
TO actresses of far more experience and wider
reputation and it Is. quite probable that next
season she will be Edwin Booths leading lady.
The people of Terre Haute are preparing to give
Miss Fischer grand ovation when 'Nordeck"
appears there on the 22d inst.

Though at its height the fun may be,
And every one intent
To do his best to keep along
The flow of merriment,
At once the tide of giee will fall,
flushed is the merry din,
And gloomy silence steals Ger all
When Dave comes in.
For Dave is such solemn chap,
He does not like noise,
Nor does he like the madcap ways
Of healthy girls and boys;
And SO we wait till he goes out,
And then we all begin
To race. and romp and laugh, and shout,
Till Dave comes in.
I only hope he'll fall in love
Some day, with some sweet maid,
Who of his military ways
VIII never be asraid;
a little woman, glad and bright,
To wit and mrth akin,
Whose face will sparkle with delight
When Dave comes in.
And then, oh, may live to see
The day! l hope theren be
A lot of children in the house.
Brmful of boisterous glee,
Who oft in chorus will unite,
a gay, good-humored din,
And crow and caper with delight
When Dave comes in.
Then Dave will be happier man
By far than he is now.
And smiles will chase away these frowns
And burrows from his brow.
Love, haste the day! and bring about
The change; for It's a sin
That SO much sunshine should go out
When Dave comes in.

Is There Room?

Grave, hast thou any room for me?
Where from the worlds great agony
can find rest in slumber deep,
Never to wake never to weep;
Grave thou holdest so many there,
Hast thou little room to spares
Friend, hast thou any grief for me!
Or do my sorrows weary thees
stand forlorn in shadow now
With winters chill on heart and brow;
Dumb to all JOY outreached to me.
Dumb to the worlds dumb misery.
Lord, hast Thou any room for me
In Thy great heaven wide and free2
Or are Thy spaces crowded so
Thou hast no place where can goa
O Lord of life! turn to Thee;
Save Thou little room for me!
